Please note that manipulating catalogs with more than 5000 nodes may tie-up the browser for a long time. Also note that Expand All in Windows Explorer with Numeric * key will also tie-up Windows Explorer if the folder that you are trying to expand has 2000 nodes or more.

Web path for images changes occasionally - please use local images or change path in the HTA as needed.
